Am. C
I let it fall, my heart,G. F
And as it fell you rose to claim itAm. C
It was dark and I was overG. F
Until you kissed my lips and you saved meAm. C
My hands, they're strongG. F
But my knees were far too weak,Am. C
To stand in your armsG. F
Without falling to your feet

(Pre Chorus)F.
But there's a side to youAm
That I never knew, never knew.F
All the things you'd sayAm
They were never true, never true,F
And the games you playAm
You would always win, always win.

(Chorus)Am. C
But I set fire to the rain,G. F
Watched it pour as I touched your face,Am. C
Well, it burned while I criedG. F
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name,

your name!

(Same chords for the rest)

When I lay with you
I could stay there
Close my eyes
Feel you here forever
You and me together
Nothing gets better

'Cause there's a side to you
That I never knew, never knew,
All the things you'd say,
They were never true, never true,
And the games you'd play
You would always win, always win.

But I set fire to the rain,
Watched it pour as I touched your face,
Well, it burned while I cried
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name!

I set fire to the rain
And I threw us into the flames
When it fell, something died
'Cause I knew that that was the last time, the last time!

Sometimes I wake up by the door,
That heart you caught must be waiting for you
Even now when we're already over
I can't help myself from looking for you.

I set fire to the rain,
Watched it pour as I touched your face,
Well, it burned while I cried
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name

I set fire to the rain,
And I threw us into the flames
When it fell, something died
'Cause I knew that that was the last time, the last time, ohhhh!
